Differentiate between the factor(s) that affect inertia and momentum.

Inertia relates directly to an object's mass. It is its inherent property and expresses how much force is needed to bring the object to a certain level of acceleration. It is the sole factor.

Momentum relates proportionally to two factors: mass and velocity. As such, momentum is not an inherent property of an object but a measure dependent on it current velocity, in addition to its mass.

  distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

explanation:

the instantaneous velocity = change in position/time taken

the slope of the graph should give instantaneous velocity.

  slope of a graph = change in value of y -axis / change in values of x -axis

  comparing both the equations

    change in value of y -axis = change in position

  change in values of x -axis = time taken

so position values should be on the y axis and time values should be on the x axis.

distance on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.
